First Internet Forum on Mental Health in Georgia

"We aim to defeat the stigmas, which are related to person's mental health. We are creating the space, where anyone can receive and give away their experiences, information or support.", declared psychoeducation society.

The multidisciplinary attitude towards internet forum was elaborated by psychoeducation.ge. Psychologists, psychotherapists, psychiatrists, and social psychologists were part of elaborating the space. 

"Despite the fact, that in Georgia, we have a practice of discussing mental health in Facebook groups and indicator of activity of users is pretty high, in the essential sense, between responding of identifiable and anonymous users significant differences are revealed. This has convinced us, that discussing these matters online has a great significance.", Khatia Tordua, co-author of research noted.
